EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: "A Glimpse into History: Italian Legionaries, Led by Gabriele D'Annunzio, Display Their Might after the Occupation of Fiume". This print titled "FVQ-F-183669-0000" takes us back to a significant moment in history. It captures a group of Italian legionaries proudly holding artillery pieces in their hands, showcasing their military prowess. Among them stands the renowned poet and national hero, Gabriele D'Annunzio, easily recognizable with his charismatic presence. The photograph was taken on May 15th, 1920, shortly after the occupation of Fiume (now Rijeka), an event that marked a turning point in Italy's political landscape. The image provides a glimpse into the aftermath of this historical event and offers valuable insights into society and politics during that era. Dressed in military attire adorned with insignias and emblems denoting rank and affiliation, these legionaries exude strength and determination. Their berets add a touch of fashion to their otherwise formidable appearance. Each face tells its own story – expressions ranging from stoic resolve to quiet pride can be seen among these famous figures. The presence of the Italian flag prominently displayed behind them symbolizes both patriotism and victory. This photograph serves as a testament to Italy's history as well as its contemporary nations' struggles for power over territories during that time. Captured by Betti Luigi from Alinari - an esteemed name associated with preserving historical moments through photography - this print is not just an artistic masterpiece but also an invaluable record documenting an important chapter in Italy's past. As we gaze upon this remarkable image today, it reminds us of the sacrifices made by those who fought for their nation while shedding light on the complex intertwining between artistry, humanistic disciplines, armed forces, society & politics within historical events like these.
